Here is the history of UFC Heavyweight Champions problems
Randy Couture - wins Heavyweight title in 1997 off of maurice Smith then contract dispute happens and he leaves UFC. Why does this sound familiar?
No Heavyweight Champ for a damn near year then............. Bas Rutten vs Kevin Randleman for the vacant title YAY
Bas Rutten - booo, never mind, Rutten wins Heavyweight title at UFC 22 and immediately vacates it June 1999.
Josh Barnett - wins Title from Couture and then bam, stripped of title for testing positive for steroids July 2002.
Tim Sylvia - Beats Rodriguez and Gan Mcgee then bam, relinquishes title September 2003 for, gues what, steroids. Of course.
Frank Mir - stripped 2005 after being able to defend title due to motorcycle accident.
Randy Couture - not stripped but another Title is created with Noguiera holding it. Couture is the real champion though, frank Mir comes back and beats Noguiera for his title.
Brock Lesnar - hasnt happened yet but just you guys watch it will.

And we never landed on the moon (government hoax), the government killed JFK, the government planned 9-11... You know what, the government is secretly juicing MMA fighters to bring shame to human cock fighting!!!
I'm just messing with you... Or am I?

Shit, I'm starting to come around to agreeing with the unpopular opinion of letting these guys (Athletes in general) juice themselves to death. At least we are entertained and don't get irritated by cancelled fights or suspended fighters... And they know the risks.

heres the even crazier thing, i count shamrock and Severn as the first 2 Heavyweight Champions since The Superfight Title was later merged into the heavyweight title. but UFC does not do this.
So not counting Shamrock and Severn as Champs there has been 14 different Heavyweight Title reigns.
7 of them ended with the champion bing stripped
thats 50 percent. CRAZY

Honestly never heard of him except for seeing the name pop up on here now and then, Ninja. Is he a pro steroid advocate?

Yes, very much so. I would take a listen to him. His knowledge on MMA is unmatched and I agree with 99% of the time.
Good Example:
